Beaux Arts Village, WA
Beaux Arts Village wildfire risk explained
Beaux Arts Village sits at the 6th percentile nationally for wildfire risk to structures — among the lower wildfire-risk places nationally — per USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities model, built from its 128 counted buildings, not vegetation cover alone. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Separately from the risk score above, Beaux Arts Village's burn probability — fire likelihood with no building count factored in — sits at the 6th percentile nationally.
What "at risk" means for the buildings here
USFS classifies 78.9% of Beaux Arts Village's buildings as Minimal exposure, the largest of the three zones here by a wide margin over 21.1% Direct and 0% Indirect — a landscape-level risk rather than a building-by-building one.
Where Beaux Arts Village ranks
There's little gap between Beaux Arts Village's 6th national percentile and its 4th percentile inside Washington, which means the state comparison mostly confirms what the national score already shows. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Beaux Arts Village ranks 29,643 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 27,830 by building count (1 is largest). Within Washington alone, it ranks 605 of 628 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Washington on its state page.
Shopping for coverage in Beaux Arts Village
Beaux Arts Village's low rating (6th percentile nationally) sits outside the range where wildfire risk alone reshapes an insurance market — still, a homeowner here loses nothing by comparing rates.
Lowering exposure, not just insuring around it
With 78.9% of buildings rated Minimal exposure, Beaux Arts Village gets less benefit from structure hardening than a Direct- or Indirect-dominant place would — the home-hardening guide explains why the zone matters.
